- I discovered that it was very fun to do some modeling and I will probably choose some particular elective courses in accordande with this to deepen my knowledge» (Very useful)

7. Have the seminars been useful for your learning? Please write which seminars that have been more or less useful.

Matrisfråga

- there is something wrong with this table!!! I want to say "rather useful" for everyone except IE which is very useful. »
- This question doesn´,t work. If I´,ve said that one of the seminars is rather useful, I can´,t choose that alternative for any other seminar. But all of them has been rather useful.»
- All of them "not so useful". They could have been but the discussions in my groups were dull.»

- It feels like it fits better in a course with thermodynamics? I think it should be kept if it is a tool that is important in the IE-toolbox, i.e. if it is actually commonly applied. If some other tool is more common, maybe that should be thought instead. The course content should reflect what tools are actually emplyed in industry and governemnt and organisations. » (?)
- With another focus it might be interesting. As is was now, Sten Karlsson (SK) explained everything in the wrong order. It would be better to start with what exergy is used to in Industrial Ecology. SK also has to realise that not everyone has a great knowledge (or any knowledge at all) about thermodynamics. Making difficult calculations is just hopeless when you don´,t understand the "basic things". Would it be possible to make the part a little simpler? Just explaining the use and mention some applications etc. Or, if calculating, which might be fun for a change, concentrate on one type of problems or have some different and go through some adequat formulas that is needed for this. SK probably think he did, but the step between his general formulas and the ones to be used in the calculations, was huge. » (Can be kept if it is changed (see suggestions below))
- The concept of exergy is interesting. It highlights that energy doesn"t necessarily mean useful energy. The distinctions is good to have in mind when talking about demand for power from different sources for a specific application. Though exergy on a calculating level is just a waste of time. I understand the calculations because I"ve taken courses i thermodynamics but the lectures from this course didn"t do anything to improve my understanding. » (Can be kept if it is changed (see suggestions below))
- I guess it has an important role in the concept of IE. But the way that it is thaught now does not make any sense. The question on the exam did not represent anyway of understanding for the subject. » (Can be kept if it is changed (see suggestions below))


Goals and goal fulfilment

The course syllabus states the course goals in terms of learning outcomes, i.e., knowledge, skills and attitudes to be acquired by the student during the course.

9. How understandable are the course goals?

5 svarande

I have not seen/read the goals»0 0%
The goals are difficult to understand»0 0%
The goals give some guidance, but could be clearer»1 20%
The goals clearly describe what I am supposed to learn»4 80%

Genomsnitt: 3.8

10. Are the goals reasonable considering your background and the number of credits?

Answer this this question and the succeeding one, only if you do know the course goals.

5 svarande

No, the goals are set too low»0 0%
Yes, the goals seem reasonable»5 100%
No, the goals are set too high»0 0%

Genomsnitt: 2

- Perhaps there should be more focus on the methodology of the analysis tools. Instead of choosing the materials for the assignment freely one should be handed a task that is known to work well. My group misunderstood the concept of the assignments that the focus should be on the methodology rather than reasonable results» (Yes, the goals seem reasonable)

11. Did the examination assess whether you have reached the goals?

5 svarande

No, not at all»1 20%
To some extent»2 40%
Yes, definitely»2 40%
I don"t know/have not been examined yet»0 0%

- Going through the lecture presentations has been a good help. Sten Karlssons lecture didn´,t help me to get any understanding of the exergy part and I my earlier experiences of asking questions when I don´,t understand is that it doesn´,t help. SK should think about to explain what characters and symbols he uses when demonstrating any calculation. He now has a tendency of skipping that part and also skipping some important steps in the calculations which might be obvious when you know your exergy analysis calculation, but very difficult if you don´,t. » (Some extent)

13. To what extent has the course literature and other material been of help for your learning?

- A book in the subject would have been rather useful, the articles are an important part but is impossible to use when you have a certain question you would like to understand.» (Some extent)
- The lecture notes have been a great help. The articles was good to read throug before the lectures to have some knowledge but the material was to big to read through once more. It seemed as if not all the literature was main, but what wasn´,t main to the lectures, happened to be main literature for the seminars. What a coincidence! I felt fooled.» (Large extent)

Poor»0 0%

Genomsnitt: 3.4

- For having the name "APPLIED industrial ecology" I spent quite a lot of time just learning theory that I never used in reality. But it might be the only way. » (Adequate)

20. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- The assignments were very interesting. »

21. What should definitely be changed to next year?

22. Additional comments

- It is in some way strange that the assignments that together with the seminars stands for more than half of the points in the course, just gives you max 8 bonus points and that these bonus points doesn´,t help you to manage the exam, only to get 4 or 5. »
